For consistency, "RCU-Protected Data" and "RCU-Protected Pointer"
are better be indexed as "RCU-protected data" and
"RCU-protected pointer".
To achieve this, use \IXaltr{} and give desirable forms as
alternatives.

A block of dynamically allocated memory whose freeing will be
deferred such that an RCU grace period will elapse between the
time that there were no longer any RCU-reader-accessible pointers
to that block and the time that that block is freed.
This ensures that no RCU readers will have access to that block at
the time that it is freed.

Such pointers must be handled carefully, for example, any reader
